Faith is
irrational and little better than superstition! I want to keep
well clear of such things..

Superstition is the result of finding
unreasonable causes and effects where none exist. Usually this

Belief in the almighty God doesn't allow
room to believe in superstitions. It is the ultimate dismissal of
all superstition. Without this monotheistic belief then there may
be any number of strange paranormal causes & effects which we
don't know about yet. It could well be argued that monotheism is
what made people look for God's laws of nature instead of holding
on to superstitions. This is indeed why we refer to 'Laws of
Nature' - the law-maker and governor is God.

Superstition is where people attribute
explanations for events which are based on flimsy evidence and
flawed reasoning, if indeed reasoning occurs at all. Islam
demands rigorous use of our mental faculties not their
suspension.

Thinking of faith as being like
superstition is quite alien to Islam. To understand why please
read the section: "OK then - Convince me!"
